New York State came out on top in a recent survey of teen driver safety, accidents and injuries.
A recent traffic safety analysis of all 50 states ranks New York as the best state for teen drivers according to the state Traffic Safety Committee. The 2025 WalletHub study also shows NY was second in the nation for both teen driver safety and teen driving laws. The survey used 23 key metrics across all 50 states, specifically looking at safety, accidents and injuries, and state laws. They used data from several sources that included the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, and the American Automobile Association. Car crashes remain the leading cause of death for teens aged 16 to 19, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
